Yuta Okkotsu, the main character from the prequel movie, has only been mentioned a couple of times in the main story. After the Night Parade of a Hundred Demons, Gojo sent Yuta to Africa to train. However, the sorcerers need his help now more than ever. So, will Yuta come back in the show, or will fans have to wait longer?
With the most powerful sorcerer Satoru Gojo sealed in prison realm, Yuki and Yuta are the only two powerful sorcerers who can stand against the villains. Yuki has already made an appearance, leaving fans wondering if Yuta will show up in the Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 finale.

Will Yuta Come Back in Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 Final?
The Jujutsu Kaisen storyline is revolving around the characters facing challenges, and now the spotlight is on Yuta, Gojo’s successor. Fans are eager to see if Yuta will make his appearance in Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 to save everyone in the absence of his mentor.
In the finale of season 2, Yuta will appear. He rescues a girl from a curse, meets elders, and declares he’ll kill Yuji Itadori. The manga’s Shibuya Incident arc concludes in chapter 136, with Yuta debuting in chapter 137’s Itadori’s Extermination arc.
Yuta, resentful of Toge Inumaki losing an arm due to Sukuna, offers a Binding Vow. Despite vowing to kill Yuji, it aligns with Gojo’s plan. Yuta reassures elders to prevent others attacking Yuji. Notably, Yuta can exploit the Binding Vow by fatally injuring Yuji and using Reverse Cursed Technique to revive him.
Yuta’s comeback got fans speculate about the next episode, where important events unfolded. However, the previous episode also marked significant moments, such as Mahito’s death and Yuki’s arrival in Jujutsu Kaisen.
Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 Episode 22: Death of Mahito
Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2, Episode 22 reveals Mahito’s death, marking the end of his role as the main threat in the arc. In the episode, Mahito tried to attack Pseudo-Geto, but he dodged. Mahito knew his fate as a human-born Curse. Pseudo-Geto used the Maximum Technique, concentrating Cursed Energy for a powerful blast. He initially thought it was wasteful but later realized its true purpose.
Pseudo-Geto, recalling a past event, believed he could have won against Yuta. Seeing Yuji’s strength, he noticed Momo watching him. Kamo and Mai attacked, but he easily avoided them. Miwa vowed not to swing her katana again, but it didn’t help.
Pseudo-Geto unleashed Maximum Uzumaki, but Kusakabe saved Miwa. Choso joined, revealing his unique parentage. Pseudo-Geto had possessed many bodies and had stitches like Noritoshi Kamo. They realized Suguru’s possessor was over 150 years old.
Choso sensed his brothers’ deaths and decided to attack Pseudo-Geto. Uraume intervened, using Frost Calm to immobilize everyone. Yuji freed Choso. Uraume attacked with Ice Fall, but Yuki Tsukumo appeared and saved them.
